Katharine Hsu, M.Ed. is an education reformer. She has been a classroom teacher having taught grades 2-8, an instructional coach, a tech coordinator, an education consultant, and a PD staff developer. In 2022, Katharine founded All the Write Colors to fulfill her vision of what effective reading and writing education should look like after exhausting herself in the current education system. She was tired of seeing brilliant kids being misunderstood, feeling bored, and even sometimes being labeled as trouble makers or a "lost cause." Education was not evolving to keep up with the advancements of both children and the workforce.

​

Katharine grew up as an English language learner with undiagnosed ADHD. Despite being placed in the Gifted and Talented program, she constantly struggled in school and there were no supports available in helping her thrive academically. This motivated her to study as many teaching practices available and develop her own teaching practices. The teaching approach at All the Write Colors is the result of Katharine's studies as well as her willingness to think outside-the-box in doing what each child deserves.

​

Since starting All the Write Colors, Katharine has been able to change the trajectory of nearly every child she works with, building their confidence and tailoring learning to their strengths and needs. ​
